Hope she recovers. I'm glad the singer was willing and able to do that. It is an amazing act of kindness, and was good for everyone involved.

Didn't the guy in the song move to Boston and get stabbed or get a blowjob or something like that?

Babies & children fighting cancer they certainly never brought on themselves is what finally turned me into an atheist; Fark the idea of any loving, all-powerful deity - if they exist & let this happen they're not worth considering, much less trusting or worshiping.

Yeah but could he hit two home runs in one game like Paul O'Neill did?

Seriously, though, this was incredibly moving.

Wow, this kills me in so many different ways.

I hate being in the hospital even overnight, so any kind of visit is cool. Especially cool when it's music therapy. Even cooler when it's someone singing a song that they are dedicating to you.

Add in a recent battle with cancer and the fact that kids are my favorite kind of people, and this is just a great thing to see!

I've gotten quite sensitive in my late thirties. As a younger man I would have thought this was sweet but I wouldn't have been moved to tears. Now though, I'm not ashamed to admit that as soon as he walked in with the guitar I farking lost it...

I misread the title as "Dana White allergies: plain white tears" and expected a thread about the head UFC bro being a racist in addition to a wife beater.

Instead it's about a song I have hated since the first time I heard it.

Best wishes on the cancer recovery though.

Cancer is a fight people can sometimes win, at least temporarily.

Alzheimers is a fight nobody ever wins.
